It is really shocking how much health-related misinformation is
circulated among the public – serious misinformation that can have
tragic consequences, such as heart damage, breast cancer, lower
intelligence and learning problems.

Lately, fish is being touted as a “health food” when the opposite is
true. After reading some really bad advice in a supermarket’s weekly
health article, and then the same bad advice in – of all places! – the
latest issue of The AARP Magazine, I decided to try to set the record
straight. There is well-documented, scientific proof of the serious
negative consequences of fish-eating. This is the opposite of what the
public is led to believe.

Here are some excerpts from an article backed up by meticulously
documented resources that I urge you to visit for more complete
information (See below):

“A study published in the journal of the American Heart Association,
for example, found that the half of the population studied that ate the
most fish had over twice the risk of having a heart attack, and over
twice the risk of dying from a heart attack.”

“The Environmental Protection Agency estimates that every year in the
U.S. 300,000 children are born at risk for lower intelligence and
learning problems due to mercury exposure because their mothers ate
fish.”

“Because our bodies have no mechanism for getting rid of mercury, it
continues to accumulate in our bodies throughout our lives.”

“The mercury-free source of omega 3's for our families should be two
tablespoons a day of ground organic flax seeds.”

"Joyful Curmudgeon"
An oxymoron?
No! I see all the beauty of God's creation and I'm joyful. At the
same time, I see all the suffering and corruption going on in the
world, and feel called to help expose and end it so that we may have true
peace and compassion.
